area is getting socked again. you know, had it not been for sandy, they would probably be laughing at the nor'easter up there and saying what? this is not a nor'easter. thank goodness it staid farther offshore and that is givead -- a good thing and that influenced us. no real threat of rain or snow or even a lot of wind there and the high tide with this nor'easter is not going to be anything like what it was with sandy simply because it was an astronomical high tide with a full moon for sandy and it's a new moon high tide, which is a better thing for them, to. again, this goes without saying it's a big-time nuisance for them and we wish them the best there. by tomorrow, this is a distant memory. hopefully, whatever kind of normal they have there, it will get back to that. it's been just a cloudy, chilly day for us. we look at the radar and we're still seeing most of the returns east of i-95 over for the bay. along the easter shore. annapolis, a few showers.

there severna park and past serena and a couple of pieces across in the city. we're going to say there is a possibility of maybe an evening sprinkle or even an evening snowflake, not out of the question the next few hours around here. again, no big deal whatsoever. the bigger picture here as we switch on over. i want you to see what is going on up here. all of the snow and late this afternoon, the snow line started creeping from west to east. most of the shore now from where we just had the live report here in atlantic city, new jersey, all the way up to new york. they're expecting between a couple of inches of snow, probably two to four inches of snow for new york city and the borroughs there and along long island and back up into the northwest as well. the higher elevations here could pick up as much as three to six and again, the nor'easter is farther off shore and that is pretty good. still, problems all along the northeast coast line here and there is going to be a bit of a

storm surge. the winds are 40 to 50 miles per hour and we haven't seen anything so far that has been up 60 plus. a few have made it up over 50 miles an hour and there is no doubt the high beach surf and most changing over to snow. along the shoreline there, they could have and that is a couple of inches of snow. along the coastal areas, we're talking flood warnings. i fly you here to show you what we don't . have a good day. earlier, there was part of the winter weather advise or extending into baltimore city and hartford county. that was just recently cancelled and there is nothing in terms of winter weather advisories for us or even across the bay for that matter and we get the colder stuff out of here and this means by the time we get to the weekend,

we're talking sunshine and temperatures into the 60s. and the weekend is looking real, real nice. 45 degrees in town and a bit of a wind and martinsburg and fredericksburg feel like 30 degrees. the clouds through the evening hours and temperaturings dropping to 40 degrees or so. mainly clouds and this is a little bit overdone with the rain. it's not this bad, this particular radar imagery does that and as you would, we pulled the picture back, i wanted to show you to look at all of the clear skies into the central plains, a big ridge of strong pressure and that is pushing in for the weekend and that means good stuff for us and some future cast is showing you here and we're do sun-- into sunshine tomorrow.

38 for a low tonight and with that evening shower or no-- snowflake not surprising me, sun and clouds tomorrow morning, we'll have a breeze on the back side of the storm system and that is gusty tomorrow and into the afternoon. the temperatures into the lower 50s and talking's beautiful weekend with temperatures in the 60s and i guess the big question is will somebody have 70 degrees plus on sunday? >> i hope so. >> yeah. >> and trying the thing -- . >> bring it on. >> veteran's day is sunday. >> thank you. >> and we're going to have good weather. >> there you go. >> and our monitors are small. >> thank you for your service. and check in with brian bolter and a look at what is next on the news edge six. >> you want to -- your day after the election. still concerns about voting issues and officials are investigating what was behind some of the long lines. and an upset for a longtime maryland congressman. we're going to talk to the democratic newcomer who defeated rosco bartlet in the sixth district congressional race. and then a drink debate that
